NFA fires back: Major win for gun rights at UCP AGM
The largest ever political convention in Canada served as a bastion of hope for law-abiding firearms owners.
At the United Conservative Party’s Annual General Meeting in Red Deer, Dwayne Gorniak, Alberta Director of Canada’s National Firearms Association (NFA), celebrated a major policy win with the inclusion of firearms rights into the newly amended Alberta Bill of Rights.
Gorniak, also President of the Vermilion Gun Club, shared his message for Canadians who may be unfamiliar with the gun-owning community. “I invite every non-gun owner to come out… see what this society is really about and how different it is from what you see on mainstream media,” he said, addressing common misconceptions perpetuated by outlets like CBC and Global.
The AGM, Canada’s largest political gathering with over 6,000 attendees, saw overwhelming support for policies bolstering firearm rights. Gorniak described the atmosphere as overwhelmingly positive, with “about 95% yeses” on votes related to firearms. “It’s a big message… that firearms are part of our culture and have been for a long time,” he remarked.
Gorniak criticized media outlets, particularly CBC, for misrepresenting gun owners and the NFA’s support for Premier Danielle Smith. Contrary to CBC’s reports, he clarified, “We’ve been running a large campaign for all these people to show up… wearing black hats in support of Danielle Smith.” He encouraged Canadians to engage with firearms communities directly, promoting transparency and urging people to view NFA content online.
For Gorniak, the fight for firearm rights represents a broader movement to defend freedom and culture. He called on gun owners to stand proud, resisting attempts to marginalize them through misinformation.

By the way, have a listen to Weird Al’s song, “I’ll Sue Ya.” It’s a take-off on people who launch nuisance litigation on products they stupidly misuse. Check it out on YouTube. It’s hilarious. -

Robin Naismith commented 2024-11-07 14:10:15 -0500Yup,very true indeed Bruce because citizens should have weapons in their homes because Everyone has a right to self-defense against a attacker and any one whom says you aren’t allowed is so Full Of Shit. Also,at the same time,peoples shouldn’t put any trust in law enforcements at all because they No longer honour there oaths any more

Bruce Atchison commented 2024-11-07 13:50:11 -0500It’s a lot easier to have a gun than to have a police officer at hand. I don’t have real guns but I sure would like one to protect my home. I could get it out of the safe in seconds instead of waiting 20 minutes for a cop to show up. And the stupid RCMP have us go through a gantlet of button presses to advice officers of suspicious activity in one’s neighbourhood.

Bruce Atchison commented 2024-11-06 16:49:27 -0500Sheila made a good point many times over about guns being property. If guns are confiscated, what about fossil-fuelled vehicles? What if gas and oil furnaces are declared illegal to use? What if single houses are banned and strangers are forced into these buildings on the basis of equity?
